Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Alagille syndrome, (Danielle Alagille, born 1925, French paediatrician), syndrome that typically presents with cholestatic jaundice in the neonatal period due to hypoplasia of the intralobular bile ducts. Associated abnormalities are facial dysmorphism, with a triangular face and low set ears, pulmonary stenosis and vertebral abnormalities and eye anomalies which include pigment clumping, chorioretinal atropy and posterior embryotoxon. Cytogenetic abnormalities are common. Butterfly vertebrae, or fused vertebrae are found on spinal radiographs. The liver echodensity may be increased at ultrasound examination but it is structurally normal. Radionuclide imaging shows slow bile excretion. The diagnosis is made by the demonstration of three of the five major manifestations: facial abnormalities, cholestasis, peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis or hypoplasia, posterior ocular embryotoxon and butterfly vertebrae.

Between 50-60% of cases result from a de novo mutation. If the parents of a proband do not have clinical features of Alagille syndrome, sibs of the proband are at low, but slightly increased risk due to germline mosaicism. analysis of exons 1-26 by sequencing

Sidhu Department of Clinical Radiology, King's College Hospital, Denmark Hill, London SE5 9RS, UK Paediatric Liver Unit, King's College Hospital, London, UK Abstract. Background : Vertebral anomalies may help differentiate Alagille syndrome from other causes of chronic cholestasis. We suspect significant under-reporting of vertebral anomalies in children with Alagille syndrome. Objective : To compare the vertebral anomalies in Alagille syndrome with those in patients with chronic cholestasis due to other causes. The accuracy of original radiographic reporting was evaluated. Materials and methods : Spinal radiographs of 50 patients with Alagille syndrome and 31 non-Alagille syndrome cholestatic patients were evaluated retrospectively by four trained radiologists. The number, site and type of vertebral anomaly were noted. The consensus evaluation was then compared to the original report. Results : Vertebral anomalies were found in 66% of patients with Alagille syndrome and 9.7% of cholestatic control subjects (
